Audi R8 canada

The Audi R8 is the exception. Bristling with technology and packing stunning performance, it is hand-built in very limited numbers by Quattro GmbH - a division of Audi - in Neckarsulm, Germany. Much like other German and Italian exotics, a mere 20 units a day trickle out of that plant, hardly enough to satisfy the demand from Audi's vast dealer network around the world.
But this all-season, all-condition, high-end sports car has a supple ride, a full-feature, luxurious interior and enough storage space to pack your belongings. It cries out for a road trip. Which is exactly what the fertile minds at Audi Canada decided to do with a high-mileage, pre-production prototype that had gone through the rigours of countless press and dealer introductions over the past few months. To showcase its stunning new R8, the carmaker arranged a cross-country introductory tour starting at the most easterly point in the country - Cape Spear, Newfoundland on the Atlantic Ocean, ending at Victoria, B.C. on the Pacific
The month-long cross-country tour includes stops at St. John's, Halifax, Moncton, Sherbrooke, Ottawa, Waterloo, Barrie, Winnipeg, Regina, Edmonton, Calgary, Kelowna and Victoria. It allows dealers unlikely to get an R8 for demonstration purposes to invite current and potential clients to see the stunner first-hand, along with samples the rest of the high-performance "R" & "S" models in the line. Samples of the RS 4, S6 and S8 are being provided at each stop along the route.
